TESTIMONIALS

Peru is an absolutely amazing place. Her beauty shines across the glistening land, her loving energy radiates from the mountain tops and she holds such sacred treasures. There are magnificent Incan temples, sparkling waterfalls, inviting mountains and wandering ancient trails to explore. The music of her kind and gentle people can send your soul soaring, like the Condor, among the clouds.

All of this magic is magnified by guide Juan Miranda. Juan is so knowledgeable about the culture, land, people, history and spirituality of Peru; his vast knowledge provides answers to any and every question imaginable. Juan is extremely patient which instantly eliminates any concern about climbing the trail ahead or the stress of hurried life. His temperament truly compliments any personality. He caters to the needs of his group be it a journey of adventure, spirituality, history etc. I simply cannot say enough about this intelligent, gentle, loving man I now call my friend.

I know in my heart I will return to Peru many times and that Juan, my dear friend and brother, will be at my side to reveal more of her treasures.

My husband and I toured with Juan for 6 days throughout the Sacred Valley in May 2008. We had an exceptional time. We went to temples, such as the Temple of the Frog, where tourists seldom visit, as well as to the well known sites, such as Pisac and Machupicchu. We picked up local school children walking back home and had a wonderful time testing our Spanish and their English. We asked local residents where long-forgotten ruins were and visited them, seeing the Inca descendants herding sheep and weaving textiles in the same mode as their ancestors.

Both my husband and I have a meditation practice, as does Juan. Juan would take us to very special places each afternoon to meditate. We meditated in a sacred cave, atop sacred rocks, deep in a temple, at the bottom of an agricultural site, and on the edge of ancient terraces. Each meditation site was very special and enriched our visit to Peru in ways that we never imagined. We also had the opportunity to meet with Juan's Shaman, Heramno Vidal , who shared with us his hopes and concerns for the future of the world.

This was also an adventure of a lifetime for me. Although I walk with crutches, Juan and his assistants provided me with just enough support and reassurance that I was able to climb to the top of every ruin and to the bottom of every valley that I wanted to. He helped me feel empowered and capable of doing everything anyone else was able to do. That, for me, made this experience priceless. We both recommend Juan to anyone with a spirit of adventure and a quest for understanding other heritages.

I first met Juan on a visit to Peru in 2004. It was my first time in South America and had no idea what to expect. I travelled by myself and hooked up with a group from around the globe. Juan Miranda was the guide. For two weeks we toured ancient sites and mystery schools and Juan shared his knowledge and connections with nature. We met many of his friends, some of whom travelled with us at different times.. I returned to Peru in 2007 and again toured with Juan. This time it was a group I had put together and engaged Juan to be our guide. He was outstanding, giving each person the attention and understanding they required. Juan showed his strength of character in many ways throughout our 16 day journey. Each one of us left for home with many new friends and a renewed faith in mankind. I feel Juan is a special angel in our world sharing his love.

I am leaving for Peru yet again. Next month my daughter and some friends are flying to Lima and meeting up with Juan. I am excited about the trip and in total gratitude for this opportunity.

I am not usually one to take a guided tour, but Juan, as an independent tour guide, provided us with experiences I never could have found as a lone traveler. With a tour maximum of 12 people, the attention he gave us was individual and caring. With his contacts our tour was joined by other Peruvians who were there to take care of us. At one point we travelled with 5 Peruvians, to the envy of large tour groups we encountered who numbered 30+ travelers with one tour guide and could only visit the major tourist traps and eat in larger tourist restaurants. We were taken off the beaten path to visit many unique and wonderful places, we ate at fun and interesting restaurants. For part of the tour our tour guide had an assistant, we brought along a massage therapist who provided in-room massages ($35 for 90 minutes and AMAZING), we had a Shaman with us to provide Spiritual Insight to the deep Peruvian culture, and our driver Carlos was a gem.

Juan can arrange travel for couples and he is a very affordable tour guide, and he organizes incredible tours for groups - maximum of 12 travelers! (My group had 8). He can also provide accommodations and dining to suit your lifestyle whether you are looking for 3* or 5* travel, and he is an experienced jungle guide as well, having himself come from a jungle community.

"Hello ...I had been planning to go to Peru for many years and it was wonderful to finally be there. As I am particularly interested in pre-Incan temples, I was glad that we could visit some of these sites. I really enjoyed the fun and laughter in the group, but also was able to spend time on my own which was great. I particularly appreciated meeting Juan. He is a really nice, caring person. Our spontaneous talks about all sorts of deep subjects (from Peruvian spirituality, to Incan culture, to UFO's) was one of the highlights of this trip....it made me want to come back again to uncover other parts of Peru, such as the jungle for example.. Juan has a wealth of experience, knowledge and stamina. I would recommend him to anyone traveling to Peru to see more than just the usual touristic places."

Juan was an important guide on a recent trip I took to Peru with a large group of spiritually motivated people. Juan proved to be a major link between the U.S. group organizers and Peruvian contacts, and could not have been more valuable in arranging money exchanges, coordinating visits with local artisans and working hard to fulfill any needs of those in our little band of adventurers. Juan was most caring and solicitous of those in the group who were older and/or had physical limitations, and saw to it that they achieved their goals in visiting all of the difficult sites we visited. He was patient, encouraging and kind to everyone. In one instance he went back up a mountain to find a stray person who had been delayed on the trail, and when she arrived back before he did and the bus left, he "ran" for miles to reunite with the bus, his good humor intact. His wealth of knowledge about Peru, its history, myths, spiritual beliefs, etc. is encyclopedic and interestingly presented. His humanity was also evident in his practice of gathering up uneaten foods which he later distributed to needy people in whatever place we happened to be in! Juan loves his country and is able to help visitors appreciate Peru through his enthusiasm. He was a pleasure to be with at all times, and I would be happy to travel with him at another time.

Juan Miranda was one of the guides on my recent pilgrimage to Peru. Juan's assistance was always there. He anticipated every need and seemed to notice every potential challenge. Juan is a delightful and attentive guide and I would recommend him to others, especially those who are looking for a spiritual dimension to their travels in Peru.
